Harmonic Lens

harmonic lens

Borosilicate glass rods and steel, 201520cm x 80cm (plinth 190cm x 20cm)A ‘future relic’ derived from experimentation with lens forms, considering an active visioning that both proceeds and constitutes telescope and telematics. Created from hand-broken rods of borosilicate glass, each length is regular but the widths vary according to a harmonic ratio derived from the Lambdoma - spatial relations that we then deconstruct in dialogue.
